A CAPELLA CHOIR
STARTS OUT WITH
SEVERAL MEMBERS
Western Trip as Far as Ohio
is Being Planned by
Mr. Noah.
NEW SINGERS FARE WELL
Musical Director Tells Advantages and
Requirements of Choir to
an Individual.
The Guilford College A Capella Choir
held Its first rehearsal the first week of
school with 00 students present. Since
that time a good number of others have
had their schedules rearranged and
have joined. So far the states repre
sented by the choir are New Jersey,
Massachusetts, Ithode Island, Virginia,
Texas, and North Carolina. Mr. Noah
is very pleased with the possibilities
that are presented by the new voices,
and states that an unusually large per
cent of them have had previous music
training, a helpful factor in speeding
up the learning of the music. With
the new voices that have come in and
with the best voices that were in the
organization last year back again, Mr.
Noah is expecting to make this year
the biggest and the most successful
since the choir was organized in 1920.
Through the new ideas and plans
that Mr. Noah has formulated and
worked out this past summer, lie is
planning to better perfect the choir by
giving the members knowledge of the
essentials of correct voice production,
the fundamentals of successful a capel
la singing, and art of choir conducting,
and the experience of stage concert
work. After four years in the cliolr
one Is expected to be able to handle
and conduct efficiently a church choir
of at least 20 to 25 voices. The only
requirement of members in the choir
is tiiat one must take and pass a course
hi "Theory of ,1/usic" which deals with
the recognition of key signatures and
different notes as they appear written
on the staff, and with various inter
vals so that one may be able to .sight
read two pieces of music with a tail'
degree of accuracy.
Another educational feature of the
choir is the contact that the members
get with the better type of sacred mu
sic. An appreciation of the music will
be gained also because each number will
be studied intensely for interpretation
and harmonic analysis.
As the biggest event of the 1934-.'i. r i
season, plans are being made for a
tour through the West with tentative
concerts at Asheville, N. C., Knoxville,
Tenn., Cincinnati, Columbus, and other
points in Ohio. Mr. Noah is planning
to leave some time during this month
to make a personal contact with those
persons and organizations which are
to sponsor the concerts.

RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES
Joint "Y" was htld Thursday evening
September 28. Those attending the
meeting met on Founders porch at 6:30
o'clock. They hiked to the pasture
where the service was held around a
catnpflre. Herbert Montgomery sounded
the call to worship on his trumpet. The
theme of the program was "Comrade
ship," and there were speeches on this
subject. After the program, marslimal
lows were roasted over the fire.
A very interesting program was ren
dered in Christian Endeavor last Sun
day evening. The theme of the pro
gram was a comparison of our bodies
to trees. Mildred Marlette, Herbert
Montgomery, Peggy Mostrom, Marjorie
Faw, and Pat Lewis gave interesting
talks on this subject. The theme of
the program was original and the
speeches were impressive.
